Preblast: F3 Dads Ballantyne – Trinket Treasure Event 2/4

It may be the dead of winter with soccer and cub scouts in full swing, but we won’t let that stop us from planning an outdoor F3 Dads event anyway. It will be partly cloudy in the 40’s on Saturday morning right? That should be ok even for the 2.0’s.

Here are the key details:
When: Saturday February 4 at 9:00 am
Where: The Field of Bulls, 13950 Ballantyne Corporate Pl, Charlotte, NC
What: 10 challenges led by dads, tickets given for challenge completion, trinket store to redeem tickets
Schedule: 9:00 – 9:15 setup, 9:15 – 10:15 challenges, 10:15 – 10:30 redeem tickets for trinkets

Prior to the event, each dad will need to go to the dollar store and purchase 20 – 30 cheap toys by spending no more than $10 total (think the cheap section of Chuck-E-Cheese). Suggestions are stickers, rubber finger puppets, bouncy balls, etc. No candy! Bring them on Saturday.

Each dad should also come prepared to lead the kids in a pain station and/or challenge. Unless we have tons of kids, we will go around as a group to each dad’s station. We will have 60 minutes to workout so we should limit each station to 5 minutes and have 10 stations which will allow for time to transition. After successful completion of the challenge, tickets will be awarded to the kids (one ticket per challenge per kid).

After all the challenges are complete, each kid should have at least 10 tickets to then use to purchase the trinkets the dads bring. We will set up a store in the back of one of our trucks for the kids to browse and buy.

That’s the plan. Will it be chaos? Probably. But we will have fun and that’s what it’s about.

I’ll bring the ice bath pain station, followed by car battery electric shock. Thanks for setting up HB… as always you the man!
